Claire, formerly of Provo high school, won all-cit- y recognition for his "B " basketball ability. Sterling, Souths' faithful cheer-leader, is a third year man whose name spells Pep.

Yes, Southerner Staff Is Back at Old Grind A 1943 Southerner which walked a gangplank of speculation during the summer will definitely make its customary appearance in May, with Lawrence Johnson as sole editor, it was announced by Mr. Douglas Williams, faculty sponsor. The fate of the yearbook hinged upon availability of photographic materials, but with assurances from the Ecker studios that they can be obtained, work and plans have sped along. Picture coupon sales will start a two-wee- k race Monday. With only 10 school days in which t? purchase the "mug slips,'' the yearbook staff urges everyone to dig down for $1.25 as early as pos-sible. To aid students cut down ex-penses, the Ecker studios will set up equipment at South high school and will take individual portraits. Turning his back on more fitting duties of being business manager of Scribe, Lawrence walked into the open arms of the Southerner. Last year he was one of five ed-itors who maneuvered that volume into the public eye. Dean Peck has been chosen to handle the major photographic du-ties connected with the volume this year. Other members of the staff will be selected through application by directors Anor Whipple, art; Ed-die F. Barr, business; Mrs. Garnet Pearson, literary; and Mr. Wil-liams.

C. commandant at South high school since 1937, will leave October 4 after accepting a first lieutenant's commission in a mil-itary police detail. The sergeant will train at Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. Before leav-ing to accept his lieutenant bars, hcwever, he announced that he would commission more than 30 canet officers at South. Honor ratings were won by Mc- Nair coached battalions for four straight years. The foundation he has laid for this year's unit may bring another rating, cadets have pointed out Sergeant McNair joined the army at the Vancouver barracks, Wash-ington, on May 22, 1924, and ed with the Fort Douglas 31st Infantry in 1927. A temporary commandant will be selected to takethe sergeant's place, while a Lieutenant Mitchell of Texas may also join the South battalion.

ENGLISH SCOUTS RELATE TALES OF WARTIME GREAT BRITAIN Four King Scouts from the land of John Bull came, saw, and con-quered the hearts of South Wednesday with their vivid tails of wartime England. Stanley Newton, 18, and leader of the group, expressed the senti-ments of his fellow companions when he said "America sure is swell." Other members of the party, John Bethel, Birkenhead; Roy Dav-- is, Southampton; and Hugh Bright, a Scotch lad from Glasgow who appeared in kilts, also told of ex-periences in war work in England. Robert Layton, South high school Eagle Scout, escorted the scouts and acted as master of ceremonies during the program. NOALL'S FACULTY ADDRESS URGES CULTIVATION OF WARTIME AIMS Speaking at last Monday's faculty meeting, Dr. Irvine Noall, recently returned from a vocational conference meet in Washington, D. C., asked every teacher to give advisory classes and clubs defin-ite wartime aims. "Education is a social function," Dr. Noall said, "and we must work today so that tomorrow we may live." The doctor also stated that boys and girls of today should all be engaged in some kind of work. Labor is greatly in demand, and soon the government may have to tap the reservoir of high school students for employees, he assert-ed. "Buy Stamp" Cry Rouses South As B of C Opens Drive Students are being urged to dig down deep and invest in a share of the U. S. government as South wages its second annual campaign for the sale of War Bonds and stamps stimulated by a rousing "buy more and still more" cry from the board of control. This year's campaign shows promise of becoming even more successful than last year's six week $4,050 sale, according to Mrs. Mabel Welch, bookstore manager in charge of the drive. Scattered at intervals through out the school will be booths to supply patriotic Southerners with stamps and bonds, and to remind all others that money so invested is of more value to fighting men than it would be if spent for ice-cream or candy. |
